    Once the email gets into Exchange it is not possible because you have
    two forests. It may be possible to do something with IIS SMTP, but it
    may be more useful to put another server in front of both of them with
    forwarding rules. Qmail MTA, for example, has a very simple system
    /var/qmail/control/smtproutes:

    domain1.com: server1.domain.com
    domain2.com: server2.domain.com

    There are plenty of other systems that will do this for you. This
    also adds the advantage that the Exchange server is not directly on
    the Internet, and that you can put antivirus/spam software on the
    gateway mail server.

    Thanks.
    Andrew.
